My first one, of course, the 8600gt. The kind of card that gives a guy a lifetime upgrade bug!

Loads of these on the secondary market, prices are falling down for some reason I do not understand. It's still the best card, and still mostly $1700-1900 new when including tax and depending on model. Asus Strix 4090 selling for $1650 in some places.

Decided to keep it, might as well build a second rig! [Reposting a prior thread but this time, without links] Selling my Gigabyte RTX 4090 Windforce as I recently bought a white one. Purchased brand new retail from Newegg on launch day, and willing to assist with warranty coverage if...

Niner's rig is absolutely perfect

I would agree that it looks more noticeable in the photo than in person for sure. So I still have the little riser that they included with my Windforce that I might make use of for this - the bracket which is included with the Aero is a super nice premium thing but unfortunately, too wide given...

Yeah def as a last resort - but before actually removing as I also thought would be necessary, I had purchased a prolimatech slim 140mm fan (15mm) to replace the existing 25mm Fractal fan. However, based on the above, it turns out that wasnt necessary. With the full air cooling setup I love...

Fitted a 343mm Gigabyte Aero ($1500 from NKD on [H]) into my Fractal Meshify 2 Compact today, absolutely flush with the Fractal case fans. No rubbing though (fit the warranty card between the card and fan just to check, and no odd noises or vibrations. Card running beautifully.

I'll take it. PM sent

PM sent!

Idk how to honor him other than my usual careful reading of his bounties to see which ones I can do without needing to be in the playlsit

Haven't gone back into the game since day 1 raid was done to do another clear, but I am going to play at normal 165fps now that contest mode is turned off. Just couldnt afford any bugs.

I locked it 30fps to avoid getting insta-destroyed by some random geometry, physics or laser beam. I was incredibly durable at 30 fps. That is how I had to play in contest mode. Our entire team was playing at either 30 or 60 fps to avoid those issues with the game.

Did day 1 locked at 30fps What a miserable way to experience a beautiful raid Raid itself is shite reskin of vow but yeah

Yeah thats what I am referring to. 8+ hours on that guy

Caretaker was awful.
